SVS-Vistek launches new 12MP camera range

Product enhancement and new launches feature on the SVS-Vistek stand. The company’s Tracer series of cameras now features better heat management a customer-requested improvements to casings’ screw fixings. But alongside improvements sits something wholly new – the SVCam-evo 12040. This is a CMOS-based camera, available in 12MP versions, which offers capabilities – high blooming suppression, low image lag and dynamic range – which matches those of CCD-based rivals, said the company’s Roland Maier.

Product enhancement and new launches feature on the 4337 SVS-Vistek stand. The company’s Tracer series of cameras now features better heat management, a customer-requested improvements to casings’ screw fixings. But alongside improvements sits something wholly new – the SVCam-evo 12040. This is a CMOS-based camera, available in 12MP versions, which offers capabilities – high blooming suppression, low image lag and dynamic range – which matches those of CCD-based rivals, said the company’s Roland Maier.

“The days of CMOS technology carrying a quality penalty are past,” he commented, “and with the new SVCam-evo 12040 we have brought the market a product which offers easy integration and maximum camera technology in the smallest package. A DualGigE Vision interface offers data rates of up to 240MB/s and the optical format of 4/3in allows the use of a wide variety of lenses.”

The internal logic allows synchronisation of image capture to an external event, free running with maximum frame rate, and exposure time control via a remote interface. The camera series, Maier added, lends itself to all manner of high-end transport applications.

    Italy’s largest industrial company, oil and gas giant ENI, has asked all its third-party transport operators to use the new EGNOS system, which allows more accurate tracking of dangerous goods in transit. Satellite-based EGNOS improves the accuracy of existing GPS tracking systems, giving a vehicle’s position to an accuracy of one metre, compared to around four metres by GPS alone, said Telespazio’s Antonello Di Fazio at the World Congress yesterday. EGNOS can be installed via an overnight software upload.
